We have had a little bit of a flea infestation here at the family manse. Being organic and all, we're going that way. Beneficial nematodes. Bathing the dogs in Dawn dishwashing soap. And a little tip we found online about scattering banana peels around the yard. Which left us with a lot of bananas. Time for banana bread.
And get creative...it's great for breakfast of course. But think about it for dessert also. Especially with a scoop of ice cream on top. Try it and see what you think.
Banana Bread
Makes one loaf.
3 medium bananas, mashed
2 eggs
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup buttermilk
1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
Preheat oven to 350°. With an electric mixer, mix bananas, eggs, butter, vanilla, and buttermilk well.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda and stir with a whisk. Add to banana mixture and mix for one minute.
Pour into a greased and floured loaf pan. Bake at 350° for 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean.
